Task Description: (T)

Obesity has become a major epidemic in our country. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports the total amount of obese adults aged 20 to 74 reached 32.9% in 2006. A similar percentage increase is occurring with children, where 18.8% of children aged 6-11 and 17.4% of teenagers are considered overweight or obese. After reviewing these facts, it is clear that the obesity epidemic needs to be addressed. To help with this process, the Food Network channel will no longer be airing episodes of Paula Dean's cooking show due to her excessive use of butter.
